‘O Sister (Keep Us Steady Through the Storm)’ by Canadian composer #Kathleen_Allan, text by D. Allan, was commissioned by Amanda Weber for Voices of Hope, the women’s prison choir in Shakopee, Minnesota, to perform together with the University of Minnesota Women’s Chorus.
The poem was developed from ideas suggested by the Voices of Hope singers. As Amanda explains, “When other choirs perform this piece, it is as if the voices of incarcerated women are finally able to be heard beyond the fence.”

O sister, the wind’s picking up,
the sky’s gone dark too early,
O sister, please be my rain,
please be my roots,
keep us steady through the storm.
O sister, as the lightning breaks,
as the thunder shakes our shoulders,
O sister, let it be our voice,
let it be our song,
to keep us steady through the storm.
O sister, when your bones are sore,
and your legs can go no further,
O sister, come sit with me,
come speak your truth,
keep us steady through the storm.
O sisters, lift your voice with mine,
keep us steady through the storm.
O sisters, tell me of your life,
keep us steady through the storm.
O sister, my body it aches,
my work’s been long, I’m weary.
O sister, please sit with me,
please hear my hurts,
keep us steady through the storm.
O sisters, rest your aching heart,
come and sit with me,
keep us steady through the storm.
O sister, let it be our voice, our song,
keep us steady through the storm.

Today is the birthday of Hanna Havrylets — an outstanding Ukrainian composer.
Her music is a space of light, memory, and silence, where the voice of woman, nature, and culture can be heard.
We remember, we listen, we are inspired.

🎊Today is the Birthday of 18c Viennese composer Marianne von Martinez!
Born in Vienna in 1744, #Marianna_von_Martines (1744-1812) received a thorough grounding in Baroque compositional techniques, but lived and worked in an era when a newer, more "galant" style had become fashionable.
Her contemporaries often noted and praised the balance of old and new stylistic qualities in her composition." (~Joseph Taff)
Here is a performance of her 'Dixit Dominus'

Творчество женщин-композиторов в контексте мужской композиторской традиции
курс от Свободного университета.
у меня к нему уже много вопросиков, и дело даже не в названии и не в том, что нет феминитива.
посмотрите, что пишут в описании:
то есть чтобы объективно оценить работу женщины, нужно сравнить её с работой мужчин-современников 🤦🏻♀️
очень смешанные чувства, с одной стороны интересно и вроде как надо, с другой - чувствую злость и грусть из-за этого перекоса.
(ещё и лектор - мужчина. дааа)

посмотрите, что пишут в описании:
Для каждой женщины-композитора из нашего списка мы будем проводить сравнительный анализ: с одной стороны, выявлять прототипы и модели, на которые она опиралась, с другой — сопоставлять её сочинения с музыкой современников. Это позволит нам объективно оценить степень её творческой самостоятельности, эстетическую значимость и новаторство ее творчества, её место в панораме эпохи.

❄️ ՁՄԵՌԱՅԻՆ ՀԱՄԵՐԳ / WINTER CONCERT ❄️
Over two millennia, countless beautiful pieces of sacred music have been written, and today they stand alongside modern arrangements, film scores and concert works. But how much music—sacred and secular—written by women do you know? There’s actually a lot.
Some of these composers were medieval nuns and abbesses, some were conductors and teachers, and some are our contemporaries who write music for the films and series we love. In our winter holiday programme we’ll bring their works together in one concert, from spiritual chants to festive songs.
Join us for our concert-lecture to enjoy wonderful music and learn more about it and the incredible women who created it!
